| Our
culture and traditions have our people in India search through
various gods and goddesses. In India, we have worshipped many
gods and goddesses, making animals, rivers, oceans, trees,
and other idols the object of our adoration. Does participation
in these "spiritual” practices help our people?
God
desires to surround us with love. God desires to fill our
life with good things. God is able is able to heal all our
diseases and ransom us from death. God is able to renew our
youth. God gives justice to those treated unfairly. God is
full of unfailing love. God has made a way for us to reconcile
and find purpose and meaning in life.
For all
have sinned; all fall short of God's glorious standard. Yet
now God in his gracious kindness declares us not guilty. He
has done this through Christ Jesus who has freed us...Romans
3:21-26
When we
were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time...God
showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for
us while we were still sinners. And since we have been made
right in God's sight by the blood of Christ, he will certainly
save us from God's judgment. For since we were restored to
friendship with God by the death of his Son while we were
still his enemies, we will certainly be delivered from eternal
punishment by His life. So now we can rejoice in our wonderful
new relationship with God - all because of what our Lord Jesus
Christ has done for us in making us friends of God.
Romans 5:6-11.
Through
Jesus Christ we have harmony with God.
